Right Wing Terrorism Watch - Hal Turner arrested (again) after calling for the murder of judges

[ck4829]

A blogger and Internet radio host from New Jersey was arrested Wednesday by the FBI on charges he threatened to kill three federal appellate judges in Chicago.

The federal charges, filed in Chicago, alleged white supremacist Hal Turner called for the judges' murders after they affirmed on June 2 a lower court decision to dismiss challenges to Chicago's ban on handguns.

The three have each served as chief judge of the 7th Circuit U.S. Court of Appeals: Frank Easterbrook, the current chief judge; Richard Posner, one of the best-known appellate judges in the country and a prolific author; and William Bauer, a veteran jurist and onetime U.S. attorney.

The charges alleged Turner used his Web site to call the three "cunning, ruthless, untrustworthy, disloyal, unpatriotic, deceitful scum" who violated the Constitution. "Let me be the first to say this plainly: These judges deserve to be killed," officials quoted the site.
